It's Not OK Zac Brown Band
Guitars tuned down a half step so Eb, Bb, Gb, Db, Ab, eb, No capo.
There seems to be a rhythm part over the chorus that's got a reggae feel, upstroke on
every offbeat.
Intro
[G] [C] [G] [D]
[G] [C] [G] [D] [G]
[G]A man was bothering me today and I
[C]wanted to tell him to go away
[G]But I stood and listened to him anyway, okay.[D]
[G]He said he didn't want to shoot that man
[C]And it was his thing and I wouldn't understand
[G]And he had done all that he [D]can, oka[G]y.
Break (Repeat Intro chords)
[G]I guess his body was as good as mine
[C]And just like me he was wasting time
[G]Turning over every stone to see what he could find, okay.[D]
[G]He was filling his tank and he asked for money
[C]I lied and said I didn't have any
[G]Then my conscious took over and I [D]gave him a hand full of c[G]hange.
[C]Don't do a thing. [G]Don't do a thing.
[D]Stay right there.[G]
[C]You'll lie there. [G]You'll lie there
[D]You don't [C]seem to [G]care
Break (repeat intro chords)
[G]I know its hard to survive in the city
[C]When the beautiful days don't look so pretty
[G]And you don't have windows to keep the night away, okay.[D]
[G]He was dirty and stinky and just a bit crude
[C]But I didn't say that because that's kind of rude
[G]And he didn't care what I had to say in the [D]first place, okay[G].
Break (repeat intro chords)
[G]I wanted to say you're a big disgrace to the [C]world, yourself, and the human race
[G]And reach back and pop him one good time in the face, ok[D]ay.
[G]No its not okay and I didn't do that
But I [C]gave him a smile and tipped my hat and [G]told him to have a ve[D]ry nice
rest of the day[G]
[C]Don't do a thing. [G]Don't do a thing.
[D]Stay right there.[G]
[C]You'll lie there. [G]You'll lie there
[D]You don't [C]seem to [G]care
Break for solos (intro chords)
[G]Guess he bought some booze or shit
And [C]sure that bothers me a little bit but [G]it's his life and I can't tell him
how to live it[D]
As he [G]turned and started to go his way I [C]tried to think of something wise to
(Stop playing for a pause)
say like...
Just on the bass notes leading up to the C play A,Bb,B,C, listen to the song for it.
[C]Don't do a thing. [G]Don't do a thing.
[D]Stay right there.[G]
[C]You'll lie there. [G]You'll lie there
[D]You don't [C]seem to [G]care
[C]You'll die there, [G]you'll die there
[D]You don't [C]seem to [G]care
